The city comes with you.
The Oakland Town Biz you love, now sized for wherever life is taking you next. The same bold, unapologetic character, the same hand-poured small-batch quality, in a lightweight travel tin built to go where your glass candle can't.
Slip it into your carry-on, your overnight bag, your hotel nightstand. TSA-approved, unbreakable, and lid-equipped so it travels clean. Light it anywhere and Oakland Town Biz does what it always does — commands the room, sets the tone, and makes clear that whoever burned this candle knows exactly who they are.
Tobacco leaf and menthol up top. Aromatic spices and leather in the heart. Woody musk, amber, and patchouli at the close. The full Oakland experience — tin-sized, travel-ready, and completely in charge.
This is not a travel compromise. It is the full experience in a smaller footprint.
Hand-poured in small batches with 100% premium soy wax. Clean-burning, phthalate-free, paraben-free, and cruelty-free.

FAQ
How is this different from the 10.5 oz Oakland Town Biz candle?
Same signature scent, different life. The 10.5 oz is your home anchor — double-wicked, made to fill a room with that bold, layered urban character. The travel tin is its companion: lighter, unbreakable, and built to move with you. Many of our customers own both. One stays home. One goes everywhere else.
Is it really TSA-approved?
Yes. The travel tin meets TSA carry-on requirements for solid candles. No liquids, no restrictions. Tuck it in your bag and go.
Can I use the lid while it's burning?
No — always burn with the lid fully removed and placed on a heat-safe surface nearby. The lid is for travel and storage only. Replace it once the candle is fully cooled to protect the wax and fragrance between uses.
Any tips for burning in a small space?
Oakland Town Biz is a bold, room-filling fragrance — in a compact hotel room or home office, start with a 1–2 hour burn to let the scent establish itself without overwhelming the space. For your first burn, allow the wax to melt fully to the edges before extinguishing to set the candle's memory and ensure an even, clean burn every time.
Does this pair with the Room & Linen Mist?
Perfectly. Light the tin to anchor the room and use the Oakland Town Biz Room & Linen Mist on linens and surfaces for a complete, layered experience — at home or away. All three Oakland Town Biz formats are designed to work together.
